Zentral gelegen, angenehm ruhig und mit sehr freundlichem Personal – ein rundum gelungener Aufenthalt.
Pros:

Die Unterkunft hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Besonders hervorzuheben sind die hervorragende Lage mitten in der Stadt, das äußerst freundliche und hilfsbereite Personal sowie die angenehme Ruhe trotz der zentralen Lage. Wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt und würden jederzeit wiederkommen. 😊

Cons:

Einziger Wermutstropfen waren die Kosten für Frühstück und Parken, die wir als etwas hoch empfunden haben. Dies hat unseren insgesamt sehr positiven Eindruck der Unterkunft jedoch nicht beeinträchtigt.

Pros:

Bis auf die Lage des Zimmers war es ein außergewöhnlicher Aufenthalt. Das Zimmer lag direkt unter dem Dach und war durch die Schräge etwas gedrungen. Aber der Rest (Freundlichkeit des Personals, Frühstück, Sauberkeit, Lage, Parkhaus...) war einfach wunderbar. Wir kommen definitiv wieder!

Ideal für unseren 1 wöchigen Urlaub
Pros:

Super zentrale Lage, dennoch ruhige Umgebung. Sehr ruhige und saubere Zimmer. Bombastisches Frühstück, abwechslungsreich, frische Säfte, tolle Käse- und Wurstauswahl, sämtliche Eierspeisen frisch und sehr aufmerksamer Service. Sämtliche Mitarbeiter und Mitarbeiterinnen extrem freundlich und hilfsbereit. Stellvertretend seien Anna, Lea und Diana (herzlichen Glückwunsch zum heutigen Geburtstag) genannt. Es herrscht in allen Bereichen eine Wohlfühl Atmosphäre. Das Hotel ist eine absolute Empfehlung. Wir kommen wieder.

Cons:
